Could Invincible be getting more seasons on Prime Video? According to Skybound Republic, an investment/crowdfunding site that allows fans to invest in the label, more episodes of the ultra-violent comic book action series are coming. In a since-deleted portion of the webpage, the site said Invincible Season 3 is in production, while the show had been renewed for Seasons 4 and 5. The webpage promotes a video game set in the Invincible universe, which fans can help fund. The crowdfunded project sits at $442,700 as of this posting, with 14 days to go in the campaign.
A portion of the mission statement for the campaign describes why making a video based on a licensed property causes some problems:
“Most crowdfunded video games are centered around indie games, and retail investors rarely have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of Aaa game publishers. Skybound is developing a highly produced, high-octane blood bath that is anything but indie.

Dan Stevens’ Legion was one show that was liked by fans in many ways. However, its end was one they weren’t so ready for. Deadpool 3 is turning out to be an action-packed multiversal flick that fans have nothing but anticipation for.
With Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman not being the only returning actors, there is an uproar among fans to incorporate the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the smoothest way possible.

There are many reunions taking place in the film, including the one staring at us right in the face. None of them, however, compared to the possibility of a reunion of the Xavier family.

Several weeks back, Florence Pugh led us through the ‘Thunderbolts*’ set and showcased her new costume. At one point in the movie, a chair can be seen with the new logo of the movie. Fans were quick to notice that the new logo had an asterisk, but most attributed this to being in some way related to production.
Then came this year’s CinemaCon, during which Feige presented both the new logo and confirmed the title change, saying that the asterisk will be explained later but not before the movie releases.
Yesterday, Atlanta_filming posted a now-deleted Instagram post in which it refers to ‘Thunderbolts*’ as ‘Thunderbolts* Part 1.’
Many fans are now theorizing that the asterisk is actually hiding the fact that Thunderbolts will be a series of movies instead of just a standalone movie meant to introduce the team to the MCU.

The Secret Behind Mysterious ‘Thunderbolts*’ Asterisk May Have Been Solved Indicating Movie’s Future
A few weeks ago, Florence Pugh gave us a tour of the ‘Thunderbolts*’ movie set and showed off her new costume. In one scene, there’s a chair with the movie’s new logo. Fans spotted an asterisk in the logo, thinking it might be part of the production.
At CinemaCon this year, Feige showed the new logo and announced the title change. He mentioned the asterisk would be clarified after the movie’s release.
Yesterday, Atlanta_filming shared an Instagram post, now deleted, where they called ‘Thunderbolts‘ ‘Thunderbolts Part 1.’
Now, many fans are guessing that the asterisk hints that Thunderbolts might not be just one movie but a series. They think it won’t just introduce the team but will lead to more movies in the MCU.

One of the most anticipated MCU projects is ‘Thunderbolts.’ It was supposed to start filming in Summer 2023, with actors from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But the SAG-AFTRA strike halted everything for over 3 months, delaying the movie. We don’t know much about the plot, except it follows a group of antiheroes on government missions.
A couple of weeks back, Florence Pugh shared a video giving fans a peek at the set, revealing the updated ‘Thunderbolts*’ title with an asterisk. Fans initially thought it might be a production detail until CinemaCon.
At the Marvel Studios presentation, Feige confirmed the title change, but he didn’t spill on the significance of the asterisk. So, it seems there’s something crucial tied to it that we’ll find out when the movie hits theaters.
Kevin Feige confirms ‘Thunderbolts*’ is the official title.

There are plenty of ways to describe what happened at Caesars Palace on Wednesday when Universal Pictures delivered Lee Isaac Chung’s Twisters to the Colosseum stage. Some examples: The film whipped up a frenzy; exclusive footage spun through Sin City; action scenes blew away theater owners, etc., etc.
All of the above work as Universal debuted never-before-seen scenes of the summer release courtesy of Chung and his castmembers Glen Powell, Daisy Edgar-Jones and Anthony Ramos, who turned up for an extended introduction.
Chung was first to walk out — an appearance that marked his first time at CinemaCon — and the director said that many in the audience might be wondering why he decided to jump into summer blockbuster tentpole territory after carving out a career in independent film. “I’ve been fascinated by tornadoes all my life,” he said, adding that he grew up in Arkansas, where tornadoes were just a way of life.

Lee Chang-dong set Cannes ablaze in 2018 with the uneasily beautiful “Burning,” a loose Haruki Murakami adaptation about the folie à troix between an alienated delivery man (Ah-in Yoo), the wily young woman (Jong-seo Jun) he covets, and the handsome charisma machine who blows them apart. The South Korean director’s sixth film made history as Korea’s first to make the International Feature Oscar shortlist (it wasn’t nominated) but is perhaps best remembered for two scenes: the woman, Haemi (Jun), dancing topless for them to the tune of Miles Davis’ “Elevator to the Gallows” soundtrack, and for its abruptly violent ending involving murder and arson in the nude. Then, there’s a missing cat that may have never existed — pure Murakami.
“Burning” remains a new classic of the 2010s, an elusive portrait of loneliness and desire that never spills on its narrative secrets. It grossed an impressive $718,000 at the U.

Robert Pattinson is one of the finest acting talents Hollywood has.

With versatility as his middle name, the British actor has now taken up another challenging role.

Academy Award-winning filmmaker Bong Joon-ho chose Pattinson to play the lead role in his film titled Mickey 17. The film is being described as a sci-fi plot with a complex narrative. A filmmaker of Joon-ho’s stature could have picked any actor in the world for the role. But apparently, there was something that drew him into casting Pattinson.

During the Warner Bros. panel at CinemaCon, Robert Pattinson and director Bong Joon-Ho shared a trailer and new details about their upcoming science-fiction drama Mickey 17.
Robert Pattinson and Bong Joon-ho took the CinemaCon stage, giving the impression they’re proud of the movie they’ve made. Mickey 17 is based on the novel Mickey 7, but they changed it to 17 because that’s the number of times Pattinson’s character dies in the film.
Here’s a plot synopsis for Mickey 17: “Whenever there’s a mission that’s too dangerous—even suicidal—the crew turns to Mickey. After one iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of his memories intact. After six deaths, Mickey7 understands the terms of his deal…and why it was the only colonial position unfilled when he took it.” In addition to Pattinson, Mickey 17 has a wealth of other talents on board,...

After one iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of his memories intact. After six deaths, Mickey7 understands the terms of his deal…and why it was the only colonial position unfilled when he took it.” In addition to Pattinson, Mickey 17 has a wealth of other talents on board,...

“Parasite” director Bong Joon-Ho dropped by the Colosseum stage in Las Vegas for Warner Bros.’ CinemaCon presentation to offer his first full look at “Mickey 17,” his ambitious sci-fi starring Robert Pattinson. Though the trailer seen in Vegas wasn’t released online after the presentation, this was the first look at it since a teaser was released in December 2022, so we’ve been waiting a while.
Though the movie was pushed back from a release this year to now open in January 2025, we’re impressed by what we saw in Vegas. And Warner Bros. film heads Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy championed the film’s incredible sci-fi vision. They further announced that it will be released in IMAX.
The trailer was a tongue-in-cheek, screwball dystopia of sorts, all scored to Frank Sinatra’s “Ain’t That a Kick In the Head.” We see Pattinson as Mickey, who is an...

The many facets of Robert Pattinson were on display in the first trailer for Mickey 17, the upcoming film from Bong Joon Ho that delves into human printing, identity and space colonization.
Bong made his first trip to CinemaCon to show off the trailer, with the director saying it’s the story of “a simple man who ultimately ends up saving the world.”
Mickey 17 is based on the novel Mickey 7 by Edward Ashton and follows Mickey 7, a space colonist known as an expendable — those who do the colony’s most dangerous work and often die in the process, only to be brought back to life through human printing technology. The protagonist in the novel is the seventh version of a man named Mickey Barnes, but in the movie, that’s been upped.
“The number is the number of times he dies. I killed him 10 times more,” Bong said to laughs from the crowd.

Mickey 17 doesn’t hit theaters until January 31, but Warner Bros wanted exhibitors to know that they had the goods.
The pic’s Oscar-winning Parasite filmmaker Bong Joon Ho was in the house at Caesars Colosseum, and it was his first time at the exhibitor-studio confab.
“It’s based on the novel Mickey 7, but we made it Mickey 17, Bong said. “The number is the number of times he dies. I kill him 10 times more. It’s a story of a simple man. It’s a sci-fi movie. It’s hard to say sci-fi — it’s a human story.”
The first look got rousing applause and was rather comical, set to the Dean Martin tune “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head?” Pattinson’s character is an expendable, and his job is to die several times through various experiments on a ship deep in space. We literally see him...

Somewhere, as "Euphoria" struggles to reassemble its cast of former no-names-turned-movie-stars for season 3, the team behind "Bones" is wistfully inquiring, "First time?" Hart Hanson's nearly-unstoppable procedural dramedy not only transformed Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz into household names over its 12 seasons, but it also took many of its supporting players to the next level. The only downside was, this meant it was sometimes necessary for the show's creatives to kill off a fan-favorite member of the Jeffersonian's staff once the actors behind them had filled up their workload with outside projects.
Most infamously, "Bones" took Booth's honorary little brother Lance Sweets out back behind the shed after John Francis Daley's directing career made it impossible for him to continue playing the cherished FBI psychologist on a regular basis. It wasn't fun for anyone (least of all Daley), although he was far from the only cast member whose character got Old Yeller-ed.

The iconic 2021 Amazon series Invincible can be dialed down in simple terms, as a kid having daddy issues. Except, his father is a psycho superhero, and he is a superhero, and they are both Viltrumites. But yeah, that’s pretty much the most dialed-down gist of the series.
We’re kidding. Of course, the series has much more depth to it than stated above and has multiple characters with spectacular storylines. Regardless, as per this theory, Mark Grayson might not be able to beat all the Viltrumites, but there is another superhero who can!
J. K. Simmons’ Omni-Man and Steven Yeun’s Invincible Mark Grayson May Not Be Strong Enough For The Viltrumites!
So to sum up the story of Invincible, we might have to face some superhero traumas alongside some daddy issues. To start off, Omni-Man (voiced by J.K. Simmons) is an alien from the race Viltrumites. That’s why he’s so powerful.

Invincible is having a great run as an animated series, produced by Seth Rogen under Amazon Studios. The show recently wrapped up its second season, one that ended with a bang. However, there are a lot of things that had to change for the adaptation of the comic, specifically because of how many characters from other IPs it featured in its source material.
Invincible (2021-present)
While comics created under the Image Comics label are owned by their respective creators, the characters do share a world with other IPs, and often crossover with each other during major events. Given that an Invincible live-action film is in the works, it is completely possible that Invincible could kick off a shared Image Comics universe, that could bring to the screen a host of beloved characters.

An upcoming Marvel project, ‘Thunderbolts*,’ was set to start filming in Summer 2023 with MCU actors reprising their roles. However, the SAG-AFTRA strike halted production for over 3 months, delaying the movie’s progress. The plot revolves around a team of antiheroes on government missions, but further details remain scarce.
Now that filming for ‘Thunderbolts*’ is underway, numerous set photos are making their way to the public eye. In the latest batch of images, we catch a glimpse of Florence Pugh donning her new costume, alongside Geraldine Viswanathan and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Take a look at the gallery below, courtesy of atlanta_filming.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the Invincible Season 2 finale.] In classic Invincible fashion, the April 4 Season 2 finale featured a whole lot of blood, guts, and shocking twists — along with setting up a host of other issues for Mark (Steven Yeun), Nolan (J.K. Simmons), the Guardians of the Globe, and more to tackle in Season 3. Between the ferocity of Mark’s take-down of dimension-hopping baddie Angstrom Levy (Sterling K. Brown), a burgeoning relationship between Mark and Atom Eve (Gillian Jacobs), the beginning of a redemption arc for Nolan, and much, much more, there’s undoubtedly a lot to chew on here for fans of the show and comics alike. However, this jam-packed episode still found time to close a chapter of Mark and Co.’s journeys, while also opening the door to a new one, or, as Angstrom’s abilities foreshadow, many new chapters.

In “I Thought You Were Stronger,” the finale to Season 2 Part 2, Mark/Invincible (Steven Yeun) rushes home after the multiverse-traveling villain Angstrom Levy (Sterling K.

Every time Mark flies toward him, Angstrom opens up a portal and strands Mark in a different dimension.

Invincible‘s first season finale was a tough act to follow. Mark Grayson a.k.a. Invincible’s bloody battle with his own father Nolan a.k.a. Omni-Man is already the stuff of animated superhero TV (and meme) legend. Still the Invincible season 2 finale comes closer to recapturing the excitement than it has any right to.
After Mark got his ass handed to him by Nolan last time around, it’s finally his turn to do some ass-handing himself. Multiverse-hopper Angstrom Levy (Sterling K. Brown) immediately became one of Invincible’s greatest threats by holding his family hostage. Those stakes give this finale “I Thought You Were Stronger” an impressive emotional throughline.
And of course, there is some multiverse nonsense to enjoy as well. Here is how Invincible season 2 ends.

Exclusive: Justin Lin’s Perfect Storm Entertainment has acquired World Rally Vice champion Michèle Mouton’s life rights with plans to develop a biopic on her. Mouton’s life story caught the attention of Perfect Storm following the release of Drum Studio’s documentary The Queen of Speed, which won the International Emmy for Best Sports Documentary in 2022.
The project follows the the story of one woman’s rise to the top of the male-dominated world of rally in the 1970s and ’80s. From the streets of Monte Carlo to the deserts of Africa and the heights of Pikes Peak in Colorado, Mouton defied the odds as she broke her way into the motorsport world during the Group B era, a time when rallying was at its fastest and most dangerous. She made history by winning four Fia World Rally Championship races, cementing her reputation as one of the greatest motorsport drivers of all time.

The world of animation has literally no bounds. An animated show can be as brutal or violent as the creator’s imagination or as dreamy as Disney. J.K. Simmons knows this fact better than most since he voices the character of Omni-Man in the iconic animated TV show Invincible.
It is the belief of J.K. Simmons (and us too) that animations have no restraints. While talking about Invincible and how the character of Omni-Man is quite an iconic one, Simmons revealed that he hasn’t read ahead much in the source material.

Superhero movies’ reign continues at the box office, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe standing as the juggernaut of the genre. While movies like Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man or the early 2000s X-Men films are often hailed for launching this expansive series of action-packed blockbusters, there’s a trio of superhero films often overlooked in discussions about the MCU’s origins: the Blade movies.
Wesley Snipes in the Blade Trilogy
Released 25 years ago in 1998, Blade hit theaters at a time when Hollywood was still grappling with how to approach superhero films seriously. These movies played a crucial role in paving the way for the confidence needed to tackle adaptations of iconic characters like the X-Men and Spider-Man.
Suggestedx-Men vs. Blade: Which Is The Better MCU Progenitor Trilogy
Without Blade leading the charge, it’s unlikely that the momentum necessary for what eventually evolved into the Marvel Cinematic Universe would have been generated.

The world was shocked when Steven Yeun, Mark Hamill, and, several other stars joined hands in voicing the iconic animated series Invincible. Premiering in 2021, the series was the animated equivalent of The Boys and received worldwide acclaim and praise for not holding back.
The character of Steven Yeun, who is Invincible himself, is on the path of discovering his powers. Being a superhero requires a supervillain who could challenge him. Luckily (or unluckily) for Invincible, a supervillain is already on the hunt to kill him.

Staying true to its comic roots, Invincible has largely pivoted away from Omni-Man in its second season. After nearly beating his son to death in Season One, the J.K. Simmons-led character undergoes an emotional journey and finds his new home in Thraxa after saving their people from a black hole.
However, the character has remained largely absent in Season Two since the show’s premiere after getting gravely injured while battling the Viltrumites alongside his son and is ultimately taken into custody. Reflecting on his little appearance this season, Simmons elaborated on the character’s future moving forward.

Ezra Miller’s role in Prime Video’s Invincible has seemingly been recast in the wake of the actor’s controversies leading up to the release of The Flash.
In season one of the animated series, Miller, who uses they/them pronouns, voiced District Attorney Sinclair, a genius who attended Upstate University and believes that human weaknesses can be solved by engineering. After being defeated by the Invincible team, he returns in this week’s episode of season two, “I’m Not Going Anywhere.”
This time around, however, it appears the mad scientist is no longer voiced by Miller but instead by Eric Bauza. The actor has more than 350 voice credits, including X-Men ’97, Krapopolis, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Rick & Morty.
The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to Miller’s rep and Prime Video for comment.

One of the biggest avenues of superhero entertainment might still be the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but one of the most popular and hyped-up has to go to Prime Video’s shows like Invincible and The Boys, which has captured the public eye and glued them to their platform.
At the moment, the animated series created by Robert Kirkman is getting a lot of love since it just restarted airing on the streaming platform after leaving the audience on a cliffhanger last year.
A still from Invincible
As per the original plan of the showrunner, this series would’ve gone on for at most eight seasons until its inevitable conclusion. But now, according to Kirkman’s comments, it seems like the show is set to go on for a lot longer than what was planned, which could bring ruin to it like what happened with his other show The Walking Dead.

Invincible Season 2 just dropped its seventh episode and the Amazon Prime Video series continues to be amazing and intriguing. Besides the stellar permanent cast of Steven Yeun, J.K. Simmons, and Sandra Oh playing the Grayson family, the series also has numerous guest stars both in seasons 1 and 2. Robert Kirkman earlier explained how he got the likes of Mark Hamill and Seth Rogen voicing different roles on his show.
Steven Yeun voiced the role of Mark Grayson / Invincible in the series
Kirkman explained that rather than auditioning the actors for their roles, the series invited these prominent actors to voice different roles. Some of the cast were privy to voice work, while the others blindly trusted Kirkman and the Invincible team to join the series.

Although he has made some memorable on-screen appearances, Ezra Miller’s career seems to be on a downward spiral, as the Hollywood actor has been fired from yet another major project. Namely, when the seventh episode of Amazon’s adaptation of Invincible aired, titled “I’m Not Going Anywhere”, the character of D.A. Sinclair appeared once again, but unlike season one, he was not voiced by Ezra Miller anymore. This came as a sort of surprise for everyone, as it had not been announced that Miller was fired from the series. The character is now voiced by Eric Bauza.
The second part of Invincible‘s second season premiered on March 14, 2024, after a several-month break and no information about Miller being recast had been released; Deadline has contacted Amazon, but no official statement has been released regarding this change in the voice cast of the series.

It appears Ezra Miller was quietly recast as mad scientist D.A. Sinclair in Season 2 of Prime Video’s Invincible.
Miller voiced the character in one episode in the first season of the adult animated series, but when Sinclair appeared in the March 28th episode, the character was voiced by Eric Bauza.
Deadline has reached out to Prime Video for comment.
Miller, embattled star of The Flash and Fantastic Beasts, has been embroiled in multiple scandals. Last year, they pleaded guilty to unlawful trespassing in a burglary case in Vermont after cutting a plea deal ahead of the hearing. In 2022, Miller agreed to mental health treatment after a string of run-ins with the law.
Based on the Skybound/Image comic, from The Walking Dead’s Robert Kirkman, Invincible revolves around 18-year-old Mark Grayson, voiced by Steven Yeun, who’s just like every other guy his...
